Site Considerations

Floor Load

Refer to the Machine Data Sheet on Page 4 for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some residential floors may require additional reinforcement to support both the machine and operator.

Placement Location

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your new machine. See Figure 7 for the minimum working clearances.
